Thinking about getting a Savage 12 BTCSS in 250 Savage chambering from their custom shop & I believe the ROT would be 1-10 through a 26" barrel.
Would it be a pain in the butt due to having to start hand loading the cartridges? Yup.
Would it be a 'Walking gun"? Absolutely NOT! Way to much barrel weight for that but I'm getting to old to do anything but hunt from a stand anyway so that's not an issue.
Would it be accurate? Remains to be seen but my feeling is it will probably drive tacks out to 400Yds maybe even further with the right weight/load and scope.
Would it be about the coolest thing on the firing line? Absolutely!
Its that or the Savage 12 VLP DBM in 30-06. Ain't made up my mind yet, either way it will come from the custom shop and like a post I read on the forums here & elsewhere the lady that answered the call is about the most helpful and professional lady I have ever dealt with & I told her so & it MADE HER DAY to inform her about the nice things I have read about her on the net.
